Also, avoid using color alone to convey important information; always include text labels or other visual cues. Furthermore, consider that users with color blindness may perceive #1E227D differently, so testing the design with color blindness simulators can help identify potential issues and ensure the content is accessible to all users. By carefully selecting contrasting colors and providing alternative cues, developers can make websites more inclusive and user-friendly for everyone.
